You may think it is a cafe or a coffee shop such as Starbucks. True, they are plentiful, but as the blog 52Books points out, they might be less than clean and have other off putting problems.  52Books goes on to recommend bookstores, which I think is a fine suggestion. But for the best place to find a washroom, I recommend big hotels. Big hotels will often have easy to access washrooms in the lobby, and they will be well kept up and well supplied. Futhermore, there are always lots of people coming and going in hotels, making it difficult for anyone working there to pay you more than a second glance. Simply pause, look at your watch or mobile device as if you are expecting someone, then make your way to the nearby lavatory. And if you feel guilty about taking advantages of their services, you can always go have an overpriced drink at their bar. There, now you are square. 🙂

One of my favourite hotels is Morgans. It’s in a great location in NYC. When I stayed there, I was on a floor that had an exit onto the roof that provided a superb view of the Empire State Building. That alone was worth staying there.

The other reason to stay there is the wonderful decor due to the great Andrée Putman. Here’s an example of her work at the hotel:

And according to Dezeen blog, a version of the chair you see on the left is now available in aluminum:

Striking! Years ago I had a chance to buy an Andrée Putman rug and passed on it. I still regret that. Perhaps you and I should be smart and get this chair. Go to the Dezeen link for more info.
